The internal dilemma of choosing whether or not to live through the things we go through shakes us to our cores. We try our best to keep hope alive, even when everything around us points the other way. We find ourselves drowning in the draining demands of our existence. But every waking day we’re faced with a heavy decision: to either give up or keep going. I hope each time we come face to face with that choice. We’re strong enough to go with the latter.
